Innovations in TB Screening and Preventive Therapy Services for PLHIV in Yogyakarta City, Indonesia.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT) for people living with HIV (PLHIV) has been recommended by Indonesia's National TB Program since 2014 but has seen limited implementation. This study describes TB screening and TPT initiation from 2019 to 2022 among eight healthcare facilities supported by the Zero TB Yogyakarta (ZTB) project. ZTB assigned a dedicated nurse to assist with active TB screening among PLHIV and recommended the immediate initiation of TPT as an innovation implemented. Data were obtained from the national HIV program reporting system, routinely reported by ART clinics from 2019 to 2022. We conducted a descriptive analysis, comparing the pre-intervention and intervention periods. During the intervention, there was a significant increase in PLHIV visits to healthcare facilities where TPT eligibility was assessed. At health centers, TB screening coverage for PLHIV decreased toward the end of the baseline period but recovered during the intervention. The number of PLHIV starting TPT also rose during the intervention. While the direct impact of ZTB is difficult to measure, the changes observed indicate progress in integrating TB/HIV services and enhancing TB prevention among PLHIV. Ongoing support, training, and supervision of healthcare facilities are crucial for improving TB screening and TPT provision.
